Chlorido-(2,2'-{[2-(1-methyl-1H-imidazol-2-yl-κN 3)imidazolidine-1,3-diyl-κN]bis-(methyl-ene)}bis-(1-methyl-1H-imidazole-κN 3))copper(II) perchlorate.

ABSTRACT: In the crystal structure of the title complex, [CuCl(C17H24N8)]ClO4, the copper(II) metal exhibits an N4Cl penta-coordinate environment in a distorted square-pyramidal geometry. Coordination to the metal centre occurs through the three 1-methyl-imidazole N atoms from the pendant groups, one amine N atom from the imidazolidine moiety and one chlorido anion. Inter-molecular inter-actions take place at two of the 1-methyl--imidazole rings in the form of parallel-displaced π-π stacking inter-actions forming chains parallel to the a axis. Three O atoms of the perchlorate anion are rotationally disordered between two orientations with occupancies of 0.5.
